Here is the good news: ‘You are the Source of Your Suffering- and That’s the Good News.’

Choose to be happy. ‘Happiness is not correlated to perfect circumstances or a lack of stress in your life, but to the amount of personal accountability you accept.’

Ask yourself, ‘What am I missing?’ Because ‘what is missing from a situation is that which you are not giving.’

Do not feed your ego. ‘A bad day for the ego is a good day for the soul of a leader.’

Stay away from micromanaging people. ‘If you feel you have to over-manage or micromanage, it is because you are under-leading.’

Stop hiring and promoting the wrong people. ‘You will have problem employees for as long as you continue to hire them and put up with them.’

Take action. ‘It is nearly always action– not opinion- that adds the most value.’

Always do what you say you are going to do. Because ‘clarity is the source– not the product- of a highly efficient and successful team.’

‘Trust is a choice.’

You are not in charge of your problems, your ego is. You are not alone.

We all have it. It is how you play with your ego. If you are not in charge of your ego, your ego is in charge of your life.

When that happens, you are in trouble. Why? Because your ego won’t let you go.

You ego will do everything to keep you where you are. That is the purpose of your ego.

Your purpose in life is to grow your life, to expand your world. But the purpose of your ego is to keep you where you are.

If you want to be successful in your own life, you must do whatever is within your power to take charge of your life.

To do that, according to Alan Stein Jr., ‘Drop the ego and stay open.’

Drop your ego and live your life. If your ego is in charge of your life, you are not free. To live freely, to enjoy your life, you must drop your ego.
